This interactive visualization was created using d3 and jQuery and was inspired by a visualization from skyrill.com. The circles on the chart depict the number of times a franchise finished in a given position, in this case from 1st place to 10th place (although for most years there were only eight teams). The larger the circle, the more seasons ending in that position, with 1st place at the top of the chart. As an example, the Yankees have a large circle associated with finishing in 1st place, while the Athletics have a large circle aligned with 8th place finishes.
Hovering over a circle highlights all circles for that team, and additionally highlights the franchise name in the legend.
